The Autopot FlexiPot System is a fully automatic, gravity-fed watering solution that operates without pumps, electricity, or timers. Water and nutrients are supplied only when needed through the Autopot aqua-valve system, creating a simple, reliable wet/dry cycle that promotes strong plant growth.
The included 20Ltr FlexiPots are made from porous, BPA-free and lead-free fabric designed to naturally air-prune roots. When root tips reach the breathable pot wall, they dehydrate upon contact with the air, encouraging the plant to produce dense secondary roots instead of circling. This results in a stronger, fibrous root system that improves nutrient uptake, prevents root-bound plants, and enables bigger growth in a compact pot size.
The FlexiPot material also allows exceptional oxygen exchange within the substrate, supporting vigorous plant development and enhancing overall plant health.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is air-pruning and why is it beneficial?
When roots contact the breathable fabric wall, the exposed tip dries out. This triggers the plant to create many new secondary roots, resulting in a highly efficient root mass.
Is this system truly automatic?
Yes. Like all Autopot systems, it uses gravity and an Aqua Valve to supply water only when the plant requires it.
Can these be used with nutrients?
Yes. The system supports nutrient solutions in free-draining media.
Does the pot material affect plant health?
Yes. The BPA-free, lead-free porous fabric dramatically improves oxygenation, which is essential for vigorous plant growth.
